(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order makes amendments to the Justice of the Peace Courts (Sheriffdom of North Strathclyde) etc. Order 2009 ("the 2009 Order").
The 2009 Order makes provision for the establishment of JP courts in the Sheriffdom of North Strathclyde (and the associated disestablishment of the existing district courts). The majority of the provisions of that Order will come into force on 14th December 2009, however, certain transitional provisions will come into force in respect of the establishment of the JP courts on 23rd November 2009.
Article 9 is inserted to make provision for the transfer of property, rights and liabilities to the Scottish Ministers of the heritable property which is specified in the newly inserted Schedule 4. A plan delineating the extent of the relevant heritable property described in Schedule 4 is held by the Scottish Government Criminal Justice Directorate at St Andrew´s House, Regent Road, Edinburgh, EH1 3DG.
References in these newly inserted provisions to the "relevant date" will attract the definition given to that term in article 1 of the 2009 Order. "Relevant date" is defined there as meaning 14th December 2009.
